Multi-Award Winning, End-of-life Expert | Normalizing Death Talk | Retired U.S. Army Veteran| Harvard Business School Online Alumni
Here is your female veteran hospice fact of the day! The number of female veterans in the USA has surpassed 2 million; this population is expected to grow by 18,000 women per year through 2025. For female veterans, military experience fundamentally changes how these women find meaning in their lives-especially at the end of life. Combat service contributes to the experience of soul injuries which can complicate the dying process. Mourning and guilt of past decisions increases the mourning and guilt of their impending death. Psychosocial support is vital as the female veterans disease process continues. The importance of intervention is to help heal past wounds and bring peace and physical comfort before passing. Food for thought: How can this fact help you support female veterans nearing the end of life? #hospice #veterans #womenveterans #endoflifecare #femaleveterans

We are proud to announce that Quick Release_ has signed the Armed Forces Covenant. This is another step in our ongoing commitment to honor and support the Armed Forces Community. The Armed Forces Covenant is a pledge to recognize the immense sacrifices and contributions of service personnel—both regular and reservist, veterans, and their families. These individuals have played a crucial role not just in our organization but across our communities. Our Pledges: ➡️ Promoting the Armed Forces: Enhancing awareness and understanding of the Armed Forces within our community and organization. ➡️ Employment Support: Offering tailored employment opportunities and adjustments to suit the unique needs of Armed Forces members. ➡️ Health, Housing, and Education: Ensuring accessible and quality services to improve the quality of life for our Armed Forces community. By signing this covenant, we vow to uphold its principles, ensuring that no member of the Armed Forces faces disadvantage in accessing our services compared to other citizens. In some cases, special considerations may be warranted, particularly for those who have given the most, like the injured or bereaved. Quick Release_ is excited to start this journey, and we look forward to enhancing our policies, practices, and engagements to honor and support our heroes. #ArmedForcesCovenant #SupportOurTroops #CorporateResponsibility #VeteranSupport #MilitaryFamilies Featuring: Shane M.

On this Veterans Day, let us not forget the sacrifices made by our veterans; as Americans, we all owe an immense debt to those who have served and so valiantly protected this nation from threats, both foreign and domestic. Being a Veteran-owned business, we seek to recognize the commitment made by those who have served and honor them for it. That's why we will waive our $495-$595 closing fees for all new files opened through December 31, 2023 for all Veterans paying title premiums. To those serving in all branches, we thank you! #veteransday #thankyouveterans #honorourveterans #militaryappreciation #veteransdaysalute #supportourtroops #floridarealestate #sunshinestatehomes #floridahomes #southfloridahomes #floridarealtor #floridaliving #floridadreamhomes #gulfcoastrealestate #realestate #titleagency #floridatitle #closing #closings #titlework

The need for groceries due to food insecurity is so high that when we open registration for our Military & Veteran Food Distributions each month, they fill up in about 8 minutes. September is #HungerActionMonth. Here's a look at our Food Distributions in action, and the impact they have on the Veterans we serve. https://bit.ly/3L2jTUw
